woo hoo I seem to still be on a Baby Shower high.. (and I didn't even get to attend the party!) is anyone else still? I think it might have something to do with fact that I have been busy getting together prizes for some very special ladies who were involved in some of the shower games and therefore have delayed the inevitable fact that sometime the shower must end . I think it's what they call denial :PAnyways I am so excited to send them off to you girls! Chelle and Dawna (these girls got all the answers in the baby photo guessing competition correct) your gifts are all wrapped up and ready to post tomorrow :) and Jacy.. the winner of our Old Baby Photo Guessing Competition (seriously check it out so much fun!) I am waiting on some amazing Amy Butler Fabrics to arrive in the post to make your apron, I already have the pattern picked out and can't wait to get sewing. The fabrics are from her new line 'Daisy Chain' but I'll leave it as a surprise as to which ones I picked - I promise your gift will be such fun :)
And for those of you who visit my blog and weren't involved in the shower and were wondering what craftyness I have been up to lately. Here are my latest sewing endevours, my gifts to Leslie:
Matching outfits. I used Simplicity 3808 if your interested, although I had to add some more length to the trouser legs for Cade, as they were short and summery. That's when I called mum. Leslie, I hope I didn't add too much :P
Love that I found fabric with kangaroos and emus on it :) Although there is also zebras and elephants - I think they might have been a tad confused :P
minky snuggle blanket (to match the colours of Cade and Rylan's nursery):
my specialty tea towel bibs. Leslie, hope they ARE fun :)
And these are my pages which were included in Andi's messy journal:

ReplyDeleteYou are the sweetest person KT!
ReplyDelete1.) I could not be MORE excited about the apron that is on its way to my house lol Still can't believe I won and with Amy Butler you just can't go wrong :P
2.) Your gifts were amazing I know if it was me, I would have been speechless just as I know that Leslie was! Very impressive KT!
and 3.) I believe this high will be lasting for quite sometime it's only natural for us to want something so fun and creates such a bond between others to last forever!
Love you sweet friend! Can't wait for that arrival in the mail box Ill definitely share it with all of the other girls when it gets here
love you
I have to admit, even though I couldn't be apart of the shower on Friday I am still on a high from it myself!!! Who do you think enjoyed it more - Leslie or us.....
ReplyDeleteYou gifts and pages were perfectly amazing! And I adore those bibs - what a great idea!!!
I have to tell you that your scrapbooking skills are most impressive and I loved the litlte giggle/elephant tag the very best...but it's all so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI was so glad that someone used those gorgeous pictures that Susan took of them in her messy journal.
You, my dear girl are an absolute jewel. So glad to have and all your creative juices to add to the Domestic Bliss team...
Love you...
You are amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I am so still on a high! It was fabulous!

You guys are so wonderful! How sweet of you to put all that together. It's just amazing how the internet makes the world so much smaller and can bring so many people together like that.
ReplyDeleteLove the overalls! They're terrific! It inspired me to go out and buy a new kids clothing pattern for all of the little ones I know. (and I always secretly wish that overalls would come back into fashion for women too!)
These outfits are cuter in person, Im telling you. The sweetest never ended in KT's package.
ReplyDeleteI was speechless!! And I can't wait to see the messy journal as well.
Whats really amazing to me, is how many of you have said you had more fun than me, and I just don't find it possible. I will never forget it.
EVER.
